While using the camera switch mode to 'Manual' (from 'Superior Auto') on top of the camera screen. Now in setings you can choose up to 20.7MP (4:3). This is all considering you are on the stock rom and using Sony camera app (although I'm not sure about 3rd party apps)

XSP Camera

Is there a way to import the camera app of XZ in the XPS? Or another option in the HDR mode to take photos with 8MP?

Should be a hardware problem

You'd probably end up with the same camera, the features of the camera and camera decoding is defined outside of the actual APK
It depends much on the camera library - something like the "hardware driver" on our computer. The 2013 line of Xperia is equipped with ExmorRS sensor, maybe it's still too new for Sony to optimize the camera performance! (??).

[Q] Camera lacks qualtity

Yes our phone has a 13MP Camera. But i've a link here, to gsm arena, and the xperia p with a 8MP camera has a more clear shot. Is there a way to make the camera pref. Better? a Mod or someting?

Blame Sony for sticking 13mp in a tiny sensor like this.

Camera. Is it REALLY 10 Megapixel ?

I am very happy with my phone but I don't care for the over simplified camera interface.
I've installed a couple of different ones including Camera JB Plus, the 4.3 camera from the Google edition HTC One Dump, and Camera Zoom FX.
None of these cameras will allow a photo size larger than 5 megapixels.
So what gives?

Thanks. I wonder what's up with 3rd party cameras.

The camera on the X has a native 16:9 sensor. Since the other camera apps were designed for cameras with 4:3 sensors, they probably can't properly access the full size of the X's widescreen photos.

I'm thinking about getting that application. Is better than stock app camera?
It certainly has a lot more options to play around with than the stock camera. It certainly gives you a dslr feel.

Question about the camera from Xperia Z owner!

Hello guys I was planning to buy Nexus 5 but then I realized that I couldn't live without SONY so now I'm planning to buy Xperia Z1, so here is my question. I suppose that all of you know the third party camera app called ProCaptureCamera which is most awesome out there, so I'm interested if in options you still can select 20MP resolution and option to crop it to 16:9 / 16:10
Something like this but for 20MP instead of 13MP please check somebody, thanks!
You can actually...
[email protected]:9 = 5248x2952 and 7.93MB
[email protected]:10 = 5248x3280 and 9.33MB
i'm using [email protected]:9 with ProCapture Camera and it works great.
Thank you guys! Could you please post any sample just interested how it looks, thanks!

To be more accurate, other third party camera apps don't have ISO settings available either.
To be even more accurate ISO settings are available on non SONY rom, for example everything works on Cyanogen Mod

Actually it's 20.7M. Z5 compact has a 23M sensor.
Anyway, did you install any camera mod?
No mods at all phone not rooted either totally stock.

You could try deleting data of Camera, Camera Common and Video (reboot after)
Just done that get the same results
